Artist's Biography
PAMELA
RUBY RUSSELL - Photographer Songwriter Writer An award winning
artist, Pamela is all about finding joy. Ms. Ruby's recorded music has been
aired across the globe and her live performances with both her various bands
and duos have brought accolades and praise from her many and varied
audiences.
She's worked with vocal coach Mark Baxter for a number of years, as well as
studying piano, writing and acting. Pianist Keith Jarrett personally invited
Pamela to his seminar 'On Spontaneity.' Honing her music skills nurtured her
other big love, the camera. Her first mentor was the respected NYC
photographer Myron Ehrenberg. The seeds of an artist grew as she sought
honesty and truth in the creation of her art. Board President of her local
town TV station, former Vice Chair of a local Dems Comm., years ago Pamela
organized her school's first anti-Vietnam protest and exhibited her 'As The
River Flows So Flows the Man,' a photo exposé of paper mills and other
polluters. for which she traveled the Hudson River's entire coastline from
NY to NJ's Palisades and back up into NY. She also acted in two challenging
plays, 'Chamber Music' as Pearl White, by Arthur Kopit, and Giraudoux's 'The
Madwoman of Chaillot,' as a Paris streetwalker, and at present is in a full
feature folk horror film, 'Seeds.' Such auspicious beginnings for a wild
woman with the makings of her own film up her sleeves!
Riding an elephant in a Mexican circus was but one of her adventures. On a
magic midnight she sang atop the Temple of Quetzalcóatl at the Sun Pyramid
in Teotihuacán, Mexico. Come dawn hundreds of encamped people awaiting their
Mayan high holy day honored her for purifying the sacred site with her
voice. Listen to her 'Avenue of Tears.' Reading Tarot cards in a Mexican
cafe she learned enough Spanish to write 'Tengo Razon.' In the 70's she
co-owned a small Provincetown, Cape Cod, MA restaurant, 'Vital Vittles' and
still loves cooking. While traveling, connecting with old and new friends,
she always has a camera with her, as well as a notebook to jot down
potential lyrics. Her portraits, fine art landscapes and songs bring joy to
her clients and audiences alike.
"We're not strangers. Creating art that heals, that's my work. Life's short.
We're not always dealt easy hands. It's the playing of tough cards with
forgiveness and wisdom, that's what moves us through time in profound,
useful ways. What I've learned I share! That's how I live!" Pamela's
dedicates her energy to these principles. Thank you.
